Hi I use memberpress to control the subscriptions to my site. Having the profiles setup that you have is great. I have setup multiple forums and would like to be able to put them on the menu system. Is there a way to do this easily?
Hi @blenkhn,
You can add wpForo Profile menus in any menu you want. You should use Custom URL menu type, and put wpForo Menu Shortocdes in URL field.
- My Profile: /%wpforo-profile-home%/
- Activity: /%wpforo-profile-activity%/
- Account: /%wpforo-profile-account%/
- Subscriptions: /%wpforo-profile-subscriptions%/
Please see the documentation: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/getting-started/forum-menu/
Hi,
Thanks for the quick response, not quite was I was looking for. I have 15 different main forums with specific access to each of them I would like to build a menu item for each of them, so that they don't necessarily see them all. If they do see them, they won't be able to post or see them right?
There is no way to check permissions in menus. So all menus will be available for all users. You can hide menus based on current user permissions.
Hi, I am using a role based menu system. so how would I create a menu item for a specific forum?
You should use Custom Link menu type. There is no other way:
BTW, you can change your forum layouts if you need to show all forums
These two layouts are good for that purpose:
Simplified: https://wpforo.com/docs/categories-and-forums/forum-layouts/simplified-layout/
Extended: https://wpforo.com/docs/categories-and-forums/forum-layouts/extended-layout/
I do not want to show all of my forums all at once. I only want to show the forums that are pertenant to that person. Only if they are enrolled into that forum.
That already mentioned by Martin above. There is no way to create a menu of forums based on current user permissions. So you can't do that. I'm really sorry but menus are out of wpForo forum permission control.
